What’s Lavantine mean?

Omg! I was actually agreeing with him! I swear, you are such an instigator, lol. I was just adding that it’s more accurate to say Afro-Mediterranean influence than to pretend it was like an African to Greek pipeline with no Levantine link.
So, Levantine just means they were from the Levant, which is the eastern Mediterranean coast, so like, modern Lebanon, Syria, Israel, Palestine, and Jordan. The Phoenicians weren’t African, which is what I was telling Zach, but their writing came out of trade with Egypt. So in basic geography: Levant. Influence: African. If that makes sense.
